I became beautiful by eating melons

In a secluded corner, Song Xiaoqin lowered her head, her body trembling slightly.

"I didn't have the chance to get in touch with Jiang Chen at all. They watched me very closely."

She had been living with her aunt for nearly half a month. During this time, she had always wanted to find Jiang Chen, but her aunt would not allow her to enter the yard. When she finally found an opportunity to run in, she was bitten by a wolf.

From then on, my aunt and the other two old women watched her even more closely, not giving her any chance at all.

The reason she was able to get rid of her aunt and escape today was because this dirty yard needed to be renovated and there were too many people coming in and out, so she found the opportunity to sneak out.

Song Xiaoqin secretly looked up and glanced at Jiang Zhao.

He had lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw him, and there were some bruises on his face. His jade-white face with flaws looked much closer.

Song Xiaoqin tried to negotiate with him: "School is about to start, can you return my admission letter to..."

Before Song Xiaoqin could finish her words, she was violently interrupted by someone.

Jiang Zhao pinched her face hard, blocking the words from her mouth.

Because of the force, the veins on his forehead were slightly bulging, and the gentleman's gentle face looked particularly ferocious.

"I'll give you another ten days. If you can't seduce Jiang Chen, I'll sell you to the red-light district and let you experience what it means to live a life worse than death."

The gloomy voice was like cold water poured on Song Xiaoqin.

Jiang Zhao pushed her away in disgust and threw a small bag of medicine powder at Song Xiaoqin.

"With this, any man will become your slave, Jiang Chen is no exception."

After he said that, he quickly left the gloomy corner.

Song Xiaoqin collapsed on the ground, holding the medicine bag, and crying inconsolably.

Zheng Zhiyuan was just about to go see Xiaorou when he ran into Jiang Chen on the way.

Jiang Chen hurried out with the fishing rod and fish food.

Wang Guoping was chasing after him, panting: "Stop right there, you little brat!"

Jiang Chen kept walking and said, "My wife wants to drink fish soup. I want to borrow your fishing tools. Don't be so stingy."

"You don't know how to fish at all, don't ruin my fishing rod and bait!"

Wang Guoping jumped up and down to chase Jiang Chen, shouting angrily: "Xiaorou wants to drink fish soup, you can go buy some fish."

"No, my wife wants to drink the fish I caught myself." Jiang Chen refused coldly, stretched out his long legs, and walked faster.

The two people quickly disappeared from Zheng Zhiyuan's sight.

Zheng Zhiyuan frowned slightly, went to the main building of the inner courtyard with obvious confusion, and went straight to the second floor.

He stood outside the bedroom and knocked gently on the door.

"Xiao Rou, can I come in?"

Ye Rou recognized her grandfather's voice and said quickly, "Okay."

Zheng Zhiyuan pushed open the door and walked into the room, and saw the scene in front of him.

Ye Rou stood in front of the window, wearing a colorful woven shawl with thin shoulders. After a serious illness, she looked much duller. Her fair little face was made even paler by the thick black hair, making her look particularly sickly and weak.

What surprised Zheng Zhiyuan even more was the confusion in Ye Rou's eyes.

"You've just recovered from your illness, why are you getting out of bed?" Zheng Zhiyuan walked over with a cane.

Ye Rou stared at her grandfather's legs and asked with concern: "Grandpa, is your knee hurting again?"

Zheng Zhiyuan waved his hand. "It's an old problem. It's not a big deal. Besides, I've already felt better after drinking the Chinese medicine you prescribed."

Ye Rou helped her grandfather sit down on the chair.

Zheng Zhiyuan put away his crutches and rubbed his knees which were sore from climbing the stairs.

Seeing that he was in pain, Ye Rou disapproved, "I'm fine now, but you're the one who's walking up the stairs because your knee is uncomfortable."

Zheng Zhiyuan looked at Ye Rou and asked her, "Why are you still bothering Jiang Chen now that you've recovered from your illness?"

Ye Rou was slightly stunned, "How did you know?"

"I met him on the way here." Zheng Zhiyuan figured out something was wrong when he heard Jiang Chen say that it was Ye Rou who asked him to go fishing.

Xiao Rou was the most attentive. She knew that Jiang Chen couldn't sit still and was very impatient with fishing, so she specifically asked for fish soup and wanted the fish that Jiang Chen had caught himself, which was not in line with Ye Rou's usual style.

Zheng Zhiyuan has a wise vision and is full of tolerance.

Ye Rou sat down next to her grandfather and gave a faint smile.

"I just tormented him on purpose."

Seeing Xiaorou admit it frankly, her delicate nose wrinkled slightly because of anger. She lost her usual calmness and gentleness, and looked more like a little girl of her age, with a bit of childishness.

Zheng Zhiyuan was so soft-hearted.

"Why? Did you have a fight?" He suddenly thought of something and changed the subject, his tone suddenly becoming stern.

"Is your fever this time related to him?"

Zheng Zhiyuan's eyes were like those of an eagle. Ye Rou felt guilty when he looked at her. She turned her head away and said, "I just knew something that Jiang Chen didn't want me to know."

She told her grandfather the whole story.

Ye Rou originally wanted to tell her grandfather and ask him to give her some advice, but after she finished speaking, she saw her grandfather's face turned red with anger, and he stood up from the chair, no longer looking like the elegant gentleman he used to be.

"He doesn't want to have a child with you, so he asked Lao Liu to seal his meridians, and he has been lying to you that he can't have a child?"

Seeing that grandpa was like a hot air balloon, about to fly into the sky after the ignition, Ye Rou hurried to cool him down.

"Grandpa, calm down, calm down."

"I'm going to beat that brat to death!"

Zheng Zhiyuan picked up his cane and waved it, completely discarding his previous frail appearance.

Seeing that the situation was getting more serious, Ye Rou was afraid that her grandfather would really beat Jiang Chen, so she rolled her eyes, covered her chest and started coughing, pretending to be sick.

“Grandpa, cough, cough, cough, don’t be angry, cough, cough, cough…”

"Xiao Rou." Zheng Zhiyuan calmed down and looked at Ye Rou worriedly, "Didn't your fever go away? Why are you coughing again?"

Ye Rou made her voice shrill and pretended to be weak, "The illness comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like pulling a thread."

Zheng Zhiyuan didn't have time to get angry, and said distressedly: "I bought a hundred-year-old ginseng by chance before, and I thought I would not use it, so I threw it to Lao Liu. Wait, I will come back now and make soup for you."

"!" Ye Rou knew that ginseng.

The master loves to drink. He claims that the wine he drinks is medicinal wine that he made himself and is harmless to the body. He drinks it endlessly.

After Ye Rou raided her master's wine cellar, she saw a bottle of medicinal wine soaked in old ginseng.

Now these medicinal liquors and the gold are kept in the basement of the villa.

Grandpa hated drinking and drunk people. If he knew that Master had made medicinal wine with ginseng, he would have gone crazy.

Ye Rou quickly pulled her grandfather back and pretended to calm down a little, saying, "Ginseng is a tonic. I have a fever and can't eat ginseng."

Zheng Zhiyuan looked a little disappointed, as he had thought that the ginseng could help Xiaorou.

He sighed, looked at Xiaorou, and suddenly asked, "What are you going to do about your relationship with Jiang Chen?"

Ye Rou shook her head.

She actually hadn't thought it through yet.

She got angry when she thought about how Jiang Chen had kept it a secret from her for so long, and watched her suffer from his illness without telling her.

But Jiang Chen's tears made her heart soften.

A gust of cold wind blew in from the half-open window. Ye Rou gathered her shawl around her body, wrinkled her face and shook her head.

Seeing her lonely and confused expression, Zheng Zhiyuan sighed.

"I bought a yard in Jing City, not far from here. It will be convenient for you to go to A University in the future. It's in your name, and it's almost ready. If you want to separate from him temporarily, grandpa will move in with you."

Ye Rou didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this.

"Grandpa, are you encouraging me and Jiang Chen to separate?"

Zheng Zhiyuan's tone was particularly earnest.

"I just want to give you some confidence. You don't have to worry about falling out with Jiang Chen. You have a place to live."

Ye Rou smiled and said, "If it really comes to that, Jiang Chen will be the one to move out, because this yard is in my name."

Zheng Zhiyuan saw something and suddenly asked, "Don't you want to make a big deal out of this?"

Ye Rou nodded.

"Why?" Zheng Zhiyuan was really confused.

Ye Rou said as a matter of course: "Jiang Chen doesn't know that I know about this yet. I want to take this opportunity to give him a good beating."

Zheng Zhiyuan not only understood the tongue twister, but also grasped the key points.

"What happens after all this trouble?"

Ye Rou said casually: "Have a good talk with him and make him realize that this is wrong."

"that's it?"

There was obvious surprise on Zheng Zhiyuan's face.

Seeing that her grandfather's face was full of disapproval, Ye Rou humbly asked, "What else do you want to do?"

Zheng Zhiyuan immediately said: "You should ask him to change and not be so arrogant and overbearing."

Zheng Zhiyuan saw how Ye Rou and Jiang Chen were getting along. Jiang Chen's strong possessiveness and desire to control Xiao Rou had long displeased Zheng Zhiyuan. Now that he found an opportunity, he immediately began to persuade Ye Rou.
